Thaao Penghlis will once again step back into the role of Victor Cassadine. The Emmy-nominated actor announced that General Hospital has asked him to return. Penghlis returned to GH earlier this year after more than a 30-year absence.
Don't look now, but one of General Hospital's ber-villains is headed back to town. Thaao Penghlis (Victor Cassadine) has informed fans that he's set to make another appearance on the long-running ABC soap.
"I just was asked back on GH on [March] 31st. So happy to announce," Penghlis shared on Twitter. "Oh what disturbances & romance will be taking place."
In January, the Emmy-nominated Penghlis returned to GH after more than 30 years away from the show. His return was a way to help usher Kimberly McCullough (Robin Scorpio) off the canvas.
